*ISLAMABAD - MNA Mohsin Dawar has been shifted to the Peshawar Central Jail. He was arrested on May 30 in North Waziristan after what is being described as a skirmish between PTM supporters and the army.*
Judge Inam Ullah rejected the Counter-Terrorism Department’s appeal for an extension in his remand due to security reasons.
Advocate Shah Qayaz Bacha said they will submit a petition for Dawar’s bail to the Peshawar High Court.
Dawar will be produced before an anti-terrorism court in Bannu on June 19.
According to the FIR, Ali Wazir, Dawar and some of their supporters carrying batons attacked and pelted stones at an army check post in Kharqamar. Wazir, also an MNA, was arrested as well and has also been shifted to a prison in Peshawar.
